Summary
When a new issue is created in JEMH in a Jira Software project, by default it will be added to the Backlog. Instead you may want to have this issue assigned to the current active sprint, or a specific sprint. There are two options for this:
#1 - Custom Field Default
The first option is to use a Custom Field Default in your Project Mapping. This means that all issues created using this Project Mapping will be given the value that you have assigned for the Sprint field. To do this, go to JEMH -> Profiles -> Configure -> Project Mappings -> Edit (Pencil Icon) -> Custom Field Defaults, click 'New Custom Field Default', click Edit, choose 'Sprint' for the Custom Field, choose 'Simple Text Value' for Field Value Type and finally add the value you want.
...
Once you have done this, click Submit. Now any mail that uses this Project Mapping will create issues with your Sprint name automatically assigned.
#2 - Directives
Another option is to use the '@' Field Processor. This requires all mail to contain a key and a value. To enable this, go to JEMH -> Profiles -> Configure -> Field Processors and turn on 'At(@) Prefix'. Click save at the bottom, now go to the Directives tab and make sure 'Directive Processing Behaviour' is set to 'On Create' or 'On Create and Comment', click save.
